Introducing a Novel multi-criteria Ranking of Alternatives with Weights of Criterion (RAWEC) model.

Optimal selection of agricultural distribution center location significantly impact the agricultural industry's growth and regional development, as they enhance product accessibility for customers and streamline delivery for suppliers. Research presented in this paper focuses on the selection of locations for the needs of an agricultural distribution center using a new method of multi-criteria decision making (MCDM), referred as the Ranking Alternatives with Weights of Criterion (RAWEC) method. On a real-world example, the Brčko District of Bosnia and Herzegovina was evaluated for potential sites for the formation of an agricultural distribution center.

Application of the new simple weight calculation (SIWEC) method in the case study in the sales channels of agricultural products.

In this research is presented a new method for determining the weights of criteria called simple weight calculation (SIWEC) method. The steps of this method are presented in the practical example of determining the importance of criteria for the needs of sales of agricultural products in the Semberija region. During the presentation of this method two methods are elaborated the simple SIWEC method which includes numerical ratings and the fuzzy SIWEC method which includes ratings in the form of linguistic value.

Velocity Map Imaging Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Silver Iodide Aerosol Particles.

The valence band electronic structure of isolated silver iodide nanoparticles (AgI NP) was investigated by vacuum-ultraviolet aerosol photoelectron spectroscopy using the velocity map imaging technique (VUV VMI-PES). The VUV VMI-PES results were obtained for polydisperse aerosol produced by aggregation of hydrocolloid of silver iodide particles 8-15 nm in size. The ionization energy of the AgI particles was found to be 6.

Hybrid nanostructures of nitrogen-doped carbon dots and aromatic amino acids: Synthesis, interactions at interfaces and optical properties.

Nitrogen-doped carbon dots (NCD) were synthesized using a simple and fast hydrothermal route, employing citric acid and urea as precursors. The resulting NCDs were non-covalently functionalized (conjugated) with aromatic amino acids, namely phenylalanine (Phe) and tryptophan (Trp). Atomic force microscopy revealed that the NCDs exhibit a disk-like morphology with an average diameter of approximately 60 nm and an average height of about 0.

Selection of an Insurance Company in Agriculture through Hybrid Multi-Criteria Decision-Making.

Crop insurance is used to reduce risk in agriculture. This research is focused on selecting an insurance company that provides the best policy conditions for crop insurance. A total of five insurance companies that provide crop insurance services in the Republic of Serbia were selected.
